Key takeaways UCLA researchers studying mice discovered that stem cells in aged muscle accumulate a protective protein called NDRG1 that slows their ability to repair tissue but helps the cells ...

In recent years, there has been a growing trend of an aging patient population and an increasing prevalence of age-associated diseases, underscoring the need for advancing research into the biological ...

For years, doctors and scientists have tracked how space changes the human body. Astronauts often come back with weaker muscles, thinner bones, and immune systems that do not respond as well as before ...

Researchers at the Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, National University of Singapore (NUS Medicine), have found that a key ...

Deep within your bone marrow, a specialized set of stem cells is busy pumping out new blood cells to sustain your body. As we age, these hematopoietic stem cells (or HSCs) become less productive, ...

Scientists discover how aging alters the function of cells, called mesenchymal drift, and manage to reverse this process.

Researchers from University of California San Diego Sanford Stem Cell Institute have discovered that spaceflight accelerates the aging of human hematopoietic stem and progenitor cells (HSPCs), which ...

Leading stem cell scientists from around the world will gather at the University of California, Santa Cruz, on May 30 and 31 for the Stem Cells and Aging Symposium. The symposium will advance an ...
